Abstract

Testimony is one of the most important evidence, but in terms of doctrine and case, it
appears a controversial approach to interpretation. This study aims to be an interdisciplinary
approach, to highlight the psycho-legal elements, both of witness and testimony, elements of
criminal procedural law. The method used in developing this approach is especially
observation and managed by highlight, to connect the legal, criminal and psychological field
in a delicate way.
